Targeting the iPad mini (6th gen) in CSS
Device-specific media queries are brittle — a new model with the same width will not match. Use them for genuine per-device fixes only, and prefer width buckets for layout.
/* Target iPad mini (6th gen) specifically */
@media only screen
and (device-width: 744px)
and (device-height: 1133px)
and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
/* … */
}
/* More useful in practice — the width bucket it falls into */
@media (min-width: 744px) { /* … */ }Safe area on the iPad mini (6th gen)
iPad mini, home indicator. Content placed inside the top 24 px or the bottom 20 px will sit under system UI unless you inset it.
/* iPad mini (6th gen) safe area — requires viewport-fit=cover */
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover">
.app {
padding-top: env(safe-area-inset-top); /* 24px */
padding-bottom: env(safe-area-inset-bottom); /* 20px */
padding-left: env(safe-area-inset-left);
padding-right: env(safe-area-inset-right);

In portrait the safe area inset is 24 px at the top and 20 px at the bottom (iPad mini, home indicator). Use env(safe-area-inset-*) rather than hard-coding these — the values change per device and per orientation.
